But somehow I managed to be one of the 3 that passed.

I can see it's time for a little more humor.
A pessimist looks at a half filled glass and says it's half empty. An optimist looks at the same glass and says it's half full. An engineer looks at it, and looks at it some more, and measures it, and calculates it......and says this container is twice as big as necesary.

The mathematician concludes that after N iterations there will be 8 divided by 2N feet remaining which will never equal zero so he gives up on the spot.
The physicist opines that if each iteration requires a finite amount of energy then the energy expended in the approach will be inversely proportional to the distance remaining and gives up on the spot.
The engineer says "8 feet, 4 feet, 2 feet, 1 foot, 6 inches, good enough for practical purposes".

Ended up landing a good job halfway through and I did what alot of 20 year olds would do and chased the dollar. Ended up graduating with an industrial management degree 10 years down the road. I still wish I would’ve finished engineering but can’t complain where I’m at.
